What ever happened to.....

I had a Casio when I was in grade school. I didn't even want it for the calculator, I wanted it for the space invaders type game that came on it.

 

If we are on the topic of retro then I used to have these as a kid: http://www.gameandwatch.com/

So, if you have an old one lying around pm me

 

had a watch with the game Frogger on it. we were the rage. It all ended one sad day when some butterball named Jessie stole it from my locker. One of many reasons I hated the 7th grade, I will spare you the rest.

 

Game and Watch! How did I forget about those? I did manage to pick up one of those handheld football games a couple of years back on ebay. It took me about 2 minutes to get my stroke back

 

I had the vic20 then I got the 63 worked my way up to a color tv and a floppy drive to go with it. Got an okidata printer and was probably the only kid to turn in homework printed in my classes.

I remember being jelous of my friends who got the commodore 128, and then the Amiga!! With modems for hacking, boy that was funny stuff back then.

 

heh, that was all the rage back then after War Games came out. I remember we would get lists of phone numbers that had modems answering them from some local BBSs and we would see "what we could do." lol Good stuff.

 

Isn't it funny when movies come out and show hacking and there isn't anything on the monitor that even looks real?? They make it all fancy, and password access that looks like it was a movie in itself.. kind of ruins the movie for me when they make it so fake.

 

You mean those password scanners aren't real?

 

When I was little kid I rocked a calculator watch, you know to get all the smart chicks.

I actually made a girl cry using my calculator watch.

I said hey, want to see an equation that will tell you your future? She said sure. So I entered some numbers, added, subtracted a few times until the answer was 55378008. I then said ok this is your future and turned my watch upside down and displayed the word 'boobless".

Man I was a mean little kid. I, also, miss those watches.

 

Figuring out words on calculators...more of the good ol days
